Why the News Media is Failing
5th September 2023 By Abiodun Kareem Giwa
The media is like human society, where people holds varying opinion. It also shows a similarity of the survival of the fittest scenario and various news organizations as weapons in owners' hands for a politically prevalence battle. The dividing wall creates the Liberal and the Conservative media, each supporting a different political ideology. It is a global phenomenon, with each country having either Liberal or Conservative media in the majority in terms of number. The Liberal Media is more prominent in the United States. Therefore, whatever cause it does not support matters less.
Conservative media often refers to the Liberal media as the media as if the Liberal media constitutes the only media in the country. Is the Conservative media not part of the media? Why not mention the organizations by their names If the need arises to hold them accountable for refusing to pursue an objective?
Yes, the Liberal Media is more powerful than the Conservative Media. They defend and protect liberal politicians and causes, shield the politicians from accountability, and make that section of the media part of society's problem. But they are heard when they go against Conservative politicians or causes because of size and reach. Compared to the Wall Street Journal and Fox News, imagine the impact when organizations like the New York Times, CNN, WNBC, WABC, MSNBC, and CBS decide to support or go against a cause.
Politicians and cronies are dreadful of these organizations' unity. They are joyful for their differences, especially the left, aware of the gain from the Liberal media's silence on issues negative to liberal politicians and causes. They know the media has to be united for them to be accountable. They are forever thankful to the owners who pay the price and dictate the tune for the journalists working in their organizations, unlike Conservative politicians who face enormous questions on matters, unlike their liberal media. Curious observers say Donald Trump and any of his children would roasted if they were in Hunter Biden and Joe Biden's shoes. The Conservative media report Biden's alleged corruption in his vice president's days, but the Liberal media do nothing to justify reporting. These observers say it is like the liberal press treats Biden like an angel who does no wrong and Trump is an archangel who does all the wrongs.
The southern border is secured, as Biden's White House says and echoed by the media in support of his policies. The only wrong is the president's spokesperson's declaration that Biden has done more than any other leader to secure the border. Observers know the truth is contrary to what she said. However, the fact cannot forever be bottled. Liberals in some liberal media are awakening from deep slumber about Russia's alleged role in Hunter Biden's laptop story. The 51 former security topnotch who signed a letter alleging the laptop was Russian disinformation lied and misled millions of Americans during the last election. The New York Post broke the laptop story. But it was killed by the old Twitter. Would it not be better for America were the story upheld by all news organizations? Biden wrongly echoed the voice of the 51 former intel officers, knowing fully well the computer belongs to Hunter and it has nothing to do with the Russians. Is it any wonder that most of the pundits on the liberal media find out, to their chagrin, that Biden and Trump are neck-to-neck in the most recent poll? Some did not expect Trump to do well in polling with Biden.
They say the indictments should have kept him down and out. And people ask: Is it why they bring the cases? People expect the news media to be united and apolitical to help the country. They say the current situation questions the journalism ethic of professionals in some of the liberal media organizations. There is no wrong in holding different opinions. But the old and tested axiom that fact is sacred, and opinion is free cannot be defeated.
The media misses the moment of telling the truth and loses followership. It missed the moment in 2016 when Hillary Clinton led the polls and failed in the election. Now that Trump and Biden are tied, it could mean a defeat for the Liberals again. Rather than work based on facts, they are scrambling to remove Trump's name from the ballot.
